I used to think Steel Panther was a band created strictly to tour House of Blues locations. They used to hit the one in Houston every three months.

I know. It's just that, in 2018, people shouldn't be allowed to get away with things like this.

there's an audience for it
and for things much worse (and much more popular) than this
doesn't seem worth expending energy on imo

I have a feeling Austin may be trolling at this point...

Absolutely not. It is genuinely disheartening to see such an obvious display of misogyny get shined off as, "Oh, haha, they're doing it as a joke!"

I don't think anyone's argued it was a funny joke

almost got taken to one of their shows probably a decade ago at the Las Vegas HoB
which pretty much would be the ideal location: Vegas is completely unsubtle, completely packed with brash celebrations of past hedonism, and 100% manufactured
I think my friend who was on a local roller derby team there was considering it because a couple of her teammates were going

y'all i just want you to know i'm going to cite this thread and ilm's collective befuddlement at the idea that steel panther has an audience every time somebody starts complaining about how "rockist" ilm is. for probably like the next five years.

Who’s befuddled they have an audience?

^^I just discovered this song a few years ago (missed it the first time around); it’s so great...

I was aware of them but saw them the other night as special guests on the current MTV jackass/rude tube type show.

Had never heard of them before.
These guys look a little old to be doing this, joke or no. According to Wiki one of them was born in 1970. I just find that kind of sad--doing something like this "for a laugh" would wear off after a week.

I mean middle aged men doing "joke misogynist" hair metal is actually one of the most depressing things I've heard of in a while.

Hell, the singer was born in 1965. He's 53. That is fucking tragic.
